According to a recent study conducted by the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) packaged and processed foods contain too much salt. Around 80 percent of the excessive salt intake is caused by the packaged grocery store food.

CDC stated that 77% of the excessive salt consumption was due to restaurant meals and other packaged foods that were all found to contain a very high amount of salt. They found that home cooked food had lesser amount of salt hence good for health.
